My favorite little brother, Mark, turns 23 today!!!!!
I find it hard to believe that our little Mark is all grown up.
I've written before about how very proud I am of him; and even though he's probably technically a "man," he'll always be my loveable, annoying, handsome, talented, laid-back, little bro.
In honor of his big day, I figured I'd take you through a
little trip down memory lane.... I'm not sure if Mark reads my blog, but after some of these photos, he may find a way to sabotage
Simply Suz & take me off the web. Sorry, Bubs. Forgive me. I couldn't resist! Some of these are just too classic! (Plus, you & I know there's worse floating out there!)
Happy Birthday! We love you!
Suz & Matt

What a cute & lucky little guy. 2 big sisters! |
|
I think Mark's rethinking "lucky" & "big sisters" right here. |
|
He was a cutie-pie. (Still is). |
|
Somebody has their rally cap on! Go Cubs! |
|
Best Halloween Costumes EVER. |
|
One of many wonderful family vacay memories. |
|
And just like that he was bigger than me! |
|
Way bigger. (I never caught up) |
|
The kid cleans up nice. |
|
But he also knows how to have a good time! |
|
Did I mention he's a baller? |
|
He's also a really sweet Uncle. |
|
Makes my heart melt. |

Hannah loves her Uncle "Dude" |

So glad we got to see you this month, Mark! |
Wish we could be at home today celebrating with you! Hope you know how loved you are! Happy 23rd!
aww...although I did notice an absence of a certain photograph of Mark and the neighbors when they were younger, haha
ReplyDeleteI was scouring through my photos to see if I had a copy of that one & sadly I don't. Must be at my folk's or maybe Mark got a hold of it & burned it. HAHA! That photo is definitely one for the ages. Maybe it'll make an appearance another year if I can get my hot little hands on it. HILARIOUS!
